Wake windows using any button - not just power button

Hi all,
I was using TNT version for quite a while and there was an option to active windows from sleep by using any button of the device and not just the power button. Now that I bought LG KS20 I cannot find this option in the original rom!
Do you think I could enable this feature somehow?

go to:
start > Settings > Personal > Buttons > Select "Lock" Tab > Select "Do not lock buttons"

Hi!
I'm afraid it's not there. The Lock feature has two option tabs: Password and Reminder (I'm translating from Greek so this may vary from the actual English text). For some reason it seems to be hidden. Any ideas on how to enable this feature?

very good question, i'm also very interesed !

Brightness toggle

I am aware that this question would have been asked previoulsy as it might be a common point however let me ask it again and request some tips in this regard.
Does anyone know of a means assign a softkey to toggle the brightness levels.
The sittuation is when you out in bright daylight, sometimes its even difficult to see button on the home screen for toggling brightness.
The other part of my question is does anyone have any tips for dealing with this sittuation?

a solution..
you can copy program attached in zip file to your PDA ..
create a shortcut to \windows\start menu\programs ..
after assign any softkey in setting\buttons

Since you know it has been asked before you should try searching for it. Since this is your first post I guess it's your freebie. Next time try searching.

Thanks for the help guys,
I am using MVBacklight and it does the job!!!

I just used a register editor to change to 8 (Dec) value the LockLevel register
     HKEY_CURRENT_USER > ControlPanel > BackLight > LockLevel > LockLevel Value ...
(HTC Touch Cruise 3650, Polaris) but it is not ok. I must do something else... What could be?...

lost settings icon in start menu

Hi,
is there any way to access settings apart from the start menu?
I noticed that the settings icon disappeared in my start menu (I'm using custom WM6.5 ROM). Is there a way how to get it back?
Thanks in advance for all advices!

You do not provide enough information to really help you.
Info such as WHAT custom ROM, what interface, etc.
So with that, if you are running Manila there is a settings tab.
If you have flashed a ROM that took it out, ask in that thread for a fix.
If you cooked your own ROM and its missing, check your kitchen and recook.

As visible from my signature, I'm using Essential 3.3 and the icon used to be present in the start menu. One day it just disappeared.
Still, settings were accessable from Manila (settings tab -> more). However, after disabling Manila (using settings tab -> more -> today), there's no way how to enter settings again.
I'd just like to find a way how to get the icon back OR how to access the settings apart from the wm6.5 start menu. Thanks again.

I've find that by searching in Registery:
HKLM / SECURITY / SHELL / START INFO / HideSettings = 1
change the key to 0, and then, you'll have the WM Settings menu in start menu of WM6.5.
I have TD2 with new Rom HTC WM6.5, and it works well for me.
I hope it will be the same for you.

In Sense, go to settings and look at the botton left option taht says "all settings"
That one should take you to where you want to go (the Bronze settings menu screen for System, Home, Connctions etc...)

Disable TouchFlo in wm 6.5?

How is this done, I just upgraded my Sprint TP2 to the 6.5 rom and I want to turn off TouchFlo also I need to be able to change the screen orientation without flipping the screen.
Where the hell are the wm settings? All I can get to are the touchflo settings.

Start, Settings, Today Screen -> "Items" tab on the bottom
then check windows default.

The setting option brings me to the touch flow settings when u hit start the thouchflo overrides the settings option. this is why i need to figure out how to turn it off

Go to the settings tab and then hit the right (or left?) softkey that says all settings. Then go to today/items and uncheck htc sense.

Remove Settings Tab from Home Screen Tab Slider

Question: how do I remove the "Settings Tab" from the Home Screen Tab Slider?
I can get to the Settings by pressing the Windows-Logo physical button at the bottom of the phone and then choosing Settings... hence I don't need the Settings Tab on the slider. In Settings > Personalize > Home Screen Tabs ... can un-tick all but Home and Settings ... I want to do the equivalent of un-ticking Settings.
tried searching but get lots of results on how to get rid of everything else but the settings tab.
ANSWER: found it
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > HTC > Manila > Configuration > # (where # is a number from 0 to 16 based on where you have the Settings Tab in the Home Screen Tabs slider order)
Name-----------Data
================
Enable..............1
PageName.........Manila://settings.page
Title.................Settings
Change the Enable to a 0 (00000000)
WARNING: will need to re-enable this flag to add and remove tabs to the Home Screen Tabs slider ... but good way to stop someone from playing with my phone and adding the twitter addition.

You cant get rid of it (and it makes sense). Tell me p.ex. how you would access the windows-settings without the tab (unless you didnt activate "show normal settings in startmenu" via BSBTweaks or similar). Thats the reason why HTC made in untickable.

Couldn't you just click start and select Settings, even with a stock HD2?

Hi there.. How do we make the icons under Settings screen to be in alphabatic order..?

Ooops
I thought I have a smart idea...
The hint with removing the settings tab in the slider brought me to an other point.
I was always annoyed be the Home-Tab. I dont need it, since I can reach the home screen with the Home key (hardware key). So it is redundant. At lease I thought so.
I removed the Home-Tab - it worked immediately! And from that moment on the I couldn't reach the homescreen anymore.
Conclusio: Good Tweak - with unexpected result.
At least I am no longer annoyed by the home tab.
